Mules
Cycle

Beth
Murguia, Sarah Poarch

The
purpose for forming the Alamo Heights Cycle Team for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade
students is to create an inclusive group for students who are interested in
learning about and growing through the sport of cycling. The sport of cycling
encompasses many developmental attributes including improving
self-confidence, learning and maintaining physical activity for a healthy
lifestyle, developing friendships, and providing positive role models in the
lives of children.
We believe this interest group will promote dedication, work ethic,
respect, sportsmanship, and competitiveness in a fun and safe environment.

Between
August and end of December

Twice
a week at a designated riding area. To be determined by coaches and time of
the season.
